WEEKEND LINKS.

Happy Friday! Here are a few things for you to peruse on the internet this weekend:

New Hairstyle Syndrome — The Illusion of Sudden Social Conspicuousness. “Your new hairstyle, in actuality, is only new to you and people who have seen and remembered the style that preceded it. Strangers have no idea that it’s different to how it used to look and therefore spend no time dwelling on the fact that it may or may not be a step in the right direction for your appearance.”

Which moon phase sounds like you? And which were you actuallyborn under? I feel like a waxing gibbous moon; I was born under a waxing moon, 89% full.

Do you agree with this woman’s statement regarding false lashes being used in mascara ads: “Women know that the product’s results will differ for reasons such as their own personal features and makeup techniques. They do not expect to look like the model in the ad.” ? I agree that I don’t expect my real lashes to look like fake lashes, but when ads depict your lashes instantly (digitally) growing, I think you need to take responsibility for what your ad is saying.
